Sorry dooD, but my wife would never have quit Winders if it hadn't been for the KDE interface. Anything that is too different from Windows and it would have been a no go from the get go. It's call xenophobia, and 90% of the Windows users have it. All these folks want is an OS interface that is easy to use and understand, and especially one that they don't have to learn from scratch. Xfce, as much as I like it, is too different to be of use to your average Windows convert. Ditto for Enlightenment, Ice, and even Gnome. My wife described Gnome as "weird looking and ugly". Any Windows user can convert to KDE without giving it much thought, and that makes it a useful interface, in my book. The other window managers are pretty much for geeks, even though many (most) are really more intelligently designed (that, I think, we can agree on).

The first thing i did when KDE started up in Mandrake was opening a console, edited the fstab.ini to start with init level 3 and the second thing i did in KDE was running the following command as root:"init 3"
The only windowmanager i use in there is called "screen" and i have no need of more :P (No mouse, just keyboard only)
